A union representing about 160,000 Hollywood actors is poised to go on strike after talks about fair pay with major studios and streaming services have failed.
It will be the first time the members of the SAG-AFTRA union have stopped work on movie and TV productions since 1980 after a final day of negotiations Wednesday did not produce an agreement.
A news conference is scheduled for noon PDT today in Los Angeles, where union leaders could announce the formal start of the strike.
SAG-AFTRA members will now join the more than 11,000 members of the Writers Guild of America, who have been on strike against the same studios since the start of May.
